The ABCC legislation has now been held back by the Government until May. Unless the budget is moved forward a week then there'll be no double dissolution.

just stop voting for candidates that are members of political parties. create a consensus government by stealth and then outlaw them.

will never happen though, too many unthinking barrackers that think that the team they follow can do no wrong, or even worse, swallow the poo stained rhetoric that only the major political parties can achieve anything.

Quite simple .

Betting on modern politics is big business.

1965, you can get better than 3.00 about Shorten's mob.

If you really believe the poo you speak, put your money where your mouth is and make a fortune.

Don't expect you will. Like Labor, soft.

I have the flog at $5 on a crappy $20 bonus bet.

Turnbull is closing the gap on being just as useless as Shorton, which I never thought would be possible.

At least Abbott, Gillard, Rudd, rightly or wrongly actually made things happen. These guys FMD.
